Montecito Med Spa Celebrates 3rd Anniversary
BY JOANNE A CALITRI | MONTECITO JOURNAL | OCTOBER 21, 2025
On Thursday, October 9, Karen Neary RN and her team held a celebratory party for Montecito Med Spa’s 3rd year in business at Coast Village Circle. I attended the event, which was packed with their clients, friends, newbies, local businesses and of course Beth Sullivan, executive director of the Coast Village Road Improvement Association.
Neary welcomed the guests with her team of Giana Miller RN, Kaliyan Bryant, MSN, APRN, FNP-C double board certified NP; and Patient Coordinator Laila Baeza. Neary, “In just three years, Montecito Med Spa has grown from a small, passionate team into a trusted destination for aesthetic nursing – rooted in clinical excellence, heartfelt service, and the belief that confidence looks different on everyone. What began as a shared vision among experienced aesthetic nurses has blossomed into a collaborative practice known for meticulous technique, natural-looking results, and genuine care. As we enter our fourth year, our promise remains simple: attentive listening, thoughtful plans, and artful execution, every visit, every time. Whether you’re preparing for a big life moment or simply investing in feeling like your best self, we’re honored to be part of your journey.”
There was champagne, anniversary cake, and a massive cheese charcuterie by The Grazing Place. Attendees received a free raffle ticket and goodie bag. Reps from the various treatment modalities, like XERF dual-RF, Sculptra, and Emsculpt NEO, were there to explain and provide demos. XERF’s dual-RF technology is Neary’s latest add. It is said to be designed, “…to deliver focused energy at multiple depths for precise contouring and collagen remodeling, offering a sophisticated option for patients seeking lift, tone, and refinement with minimal downtime.” Reps were present from Galderma Labs which makes Sculptra, a filler alternative, and Emsculpt NEO. The spa has a full line of aesthetics covering treatments, injectables, IV therapy and HydraFacials. Neary has also opened a location in Santa Ynez.
MJ wishes the Montecito Med Spa a happy anniversary!
